Anthony Taylor Vows to Illegally Stream Errol Spence vs Terence Crawford

The upcoming clash of undefeated welterweight titans, Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford promises to set the boxing world ablaze this July 29 in Las Vegas. These powerhouses, Spence reigning with the WBA, WBC, and IBF belts, and Crawford, the WBO champion, are set to redefine the boundaries of the welterweight division.

Yet, as the anticipation reaches fever pitch, a curious ripple disturbs the waters. Fellow boxer, Anthony ‘Pretty Boy’ Taylor, has taken to social media with a claim audacious enough to pique even the most casual observers’ interest. Known for his own exploits in the boxing ring, Taylor’s words carry a certain weight in the combat sports community. What could this bold statement be about?

Anthony Taylor’s bold rebuttal to Errol Spence’s tweet

In a surprising move, Anthony Taylor took to Twitter with a controversial assertion. He directly replied to Errol Spence’s tweet about the upcoming match, marked as #SpenceCrawford, with a surprisingly candid statement. Taylor wrote, “You realize nobody is spending $84.99 on your fight right? We all watching it for free🤣🤣🤣.”

This declaration from Taylor, a professional boxer himself, is provocative and unexpected. The bold assertion suggests that he, along with many others, will be resorting to unauthorized streams to watch this high-stakes boxing match.

Spence-Crawford Fight: How much is the PPV?

The details surrounding the eagerly anticipated Spence-Crawford fight are as intense as the match itself. Scheduled for Saturday, July 29, the main event is set to commence at 11:30 p.m. ET, taking place on the same day as UFC 291. This overlap could potentially affect viewership numbers and fuel more illegal streaming, in line with Anthony Taylor’s cheeky proclamation.

The showdown will be staged in Las Vegas, in the sprawling T-Mobile Arena that can host up to 20,000 spectators. The pricing for attending the fight mirrors its high stakes. The tickets, according to Ticketmaster, start at a steep $667 and climb up to an eye-watering $21,686.

To add to the spectacle, the fight will be available on Showtime PPV for a fee of $84.95. This substantial cost, along with Anthony Taylor’s bold prediction about unauthorized streaming, could stir the pot further in the lead-up to the match. It seems the sporting world can anticipate not just a boxing clash, but also a potential clash of interests when it comes to viewing the event.
